He further added that Lahore Press Club fully supports holding more health-related events to provide journalists and the public with essential information and facilities for a healthy life. Later, a special team of doctors from Cancer Care Hospital and Research Center conducted examinations and tests on 30 women using a modern mammography machine installed in a mobile ambulance.
